    Multiple Notebook OS swappin


    I have 4 Latitude E6530's I've collected that work. I use them for backup,travel,etc. I find I can ( for years now) take the hard drive and install it in anyone of them and away I go. Or restore an image from my active one to another one to take on a trip and Win 7 worked fine between them. It didn't ask for new activation keys for each one.
    Recently I moved from Win 7 to 10 and find now I get the water mark for activation on the other notebooks. But not the one I activated it on.
    Is it because they all had Win7 as OEM and not 10 and 10 is picking that up? Nothing I can do except live with the watermark? I might want to switch out parts to keep one running A1 at some point so this is a problem I may have to live with?

    :)
